    stores/shops that never have enough staff on the tills.

    Pets at Home in Crayford for example has 4 tills but they'll wait until the queue is back to Dartford before the one cashier on duty rings the bell for assistance. it then takes an eon for another cashier to arrive.....probably too busy playing with the guinea pigs.

    KFC is also particularly bad for this.

    Didn't know they had guinea pigs at KFC. Not going there again...

    As long as they aren't playing with the hamsters (a la Richard Gere).

    I never said you did. Who said I was talking about you? You shouldn't jump in and plead your defence before you've been charged.

    The term 'Brexit' was bad enough but 'Bremain' makes me want to commit atrocities.

    Ridiculous untargetted adverts on Spotify. All morning I have been listening to Man Or Astro-Man? But they are giving me ads for Club Classics and Tynie Tempah. Why? They know what music I play. Why don't they advertise something that I might like?

    A sign on the A 40 in Oxford 'Kill Your Speed Not Our Workforce' last night.

    Chance would be a fine thing! The road was coned down to one lane yet not a workman to be seen!

    Delays for the sake of it.

    The M25 was almost as bad too between junctions 12 and 11. 4 lanes down to 1 almost an hour on the journey around midnight.

    Thank you invisible men!!!!

    Now listening to Man or Astroman having bought Defcon 5..4..3..2..1 on the above recommendation.

    Ok so far. Not sure it was worth my old school £7.99.....

    I gave up on ITV and BBC on a Sunday night a long time ago. If it's not a period drama they'll invariably throw a cop/crime/murder based production together.

    There's been a murder, but this time the murder is on the Shetland isles

    Ooooh, yeah that's different.

    Also I don't want to hear the word 'Fintech Start-up' anymore that's a real sickening business buzzword that's out there at the moment

    Losing things and then finding them the second you don't need them anymore.
  • Kevin Pietersen. Incredibly talented at his chosen sport but just comes across as an absolute tool.

    Same goes for Ronnie O'Sullivan
  • The innate ability I have to be in the way. It’s not a skill that one can learn or develop, you either have it or you don’t. I sometimes wonder if I am being tested by a higher being.

    Yesterday I was waiting for an Amazon parcel in a Tesco Express. The manager was gone for five minutes looking for it - the shop was empty save for a shop girl who wanted to stack a shelf - the one where I was standing. The location that I chose to move to happened to be in front of the second shelf she wanted to attend to. I decided to decamp to a completely different aisle. A customer then came into the shop and I immediately knew that she would want to check out the pasta stuff - cos that was where I was standing. Sure enough …

    I can also easily locate and block where cleaners want to sweep, stand in the main through-route of a crowded pub and play that funny little left, right game with approaching pedestrians.

    When cats puke, they never go out but instead pick the nicest bit of carpet in the middle of the living room to do it. And if you chase them they still don't go out, but run upstairs and puke in the most awkward place under the bed.

    The poxy things have to make a performance of it too. Can't just open their mouths and yak like other animals. No, they have to wheeze and cough like a 40 a dayer with bronchitis before brining it up in stages.


  • and play that funny little left, right game with approaching pedestrians.

    Used to suffer this chronically. Learned that if you stare/ focus over the shoulder on the side you intend to pass you'll never suffer it again. It works a treat.

    You might end up missing the old pavement tangos though.
